If you think you’ve seen some crazy iPhone 6 cases, think again. With the fear of bending, breaking or cracking the illustrious shell of Apple’s newest smartphone, owners are bulking up with thick, protective covers. Lucky for those of you who are prone to accidents, there’s a more stylish option for you now. Before the Dark Knight and the Tumbler, there was a simpler, sleeker ride that Michael Keaton rode around in. The “Crazy Case Batmobile” from Bandai takes the shape of an exact replica from Tim Burton‘s unique vision of the Caped Crusader. The incredibly detailed case comes with a built-in LED light that projects the Bat Signal onto the wall, pop-out wheels that allow for camera use and a utility belt that guards the home button. Now that’s protecting your phone in style.

Art & Design was a difficult category to narrow down for us because at Freshness, we believe everything is art in its own merit. Graffiti on the wall of a New York City sidewalk may be be as meaningful to someone as a 10-million dollar Monet. Heck, a pair of Jordans is a masterpiece to some (like us). Art is in the eye of the beholder so to wrap up the year in all that is beautiful, we brought together some of your favorites like the trending Giant Nike Inspired Sneaker Storage Box, stunning concepts from the architecture world and even a figurine. Take a look below to revisit some of the best design-forward things from 2014.

Bandai has unveiled official images of its upcoming Ashigaru Stormtrooper, and the collectible looks unabashedly badass.The 7-inch figure will launch in May 2015 and come packaged with an old-school E11 blaster rifle and an even more old school Katana. The Samurai connection makes sense when you consider that filmmaker George Lucas took inspiration from Akira Kurosawa epics like Seven Samurai and The Hidden Fortress when he first developed the script for the original Star Wars. Retail for the Ashigaru Stormtrooper is listed at 9,504 yen (around $65).

It’s been a while since we’ve heard from the Tekken franchise but fans of the game can finally rejoice (and cry a little bit – we’ll get to why a bit later) because we’ve just been treated to a a pretty awesome gameplay trailer for the upcoming Tekken 7, filled with excellent graphics and even more excellent can-kicking. The title, which marks the ninth installment in the series and 20th anniversary since the first one’s release, will see the return of some of your favorite characters like Heihachi, Xiaoyu and Hwoarang. Now for the “cry” part of the news. It was recently announced that a new character named “Lucky Chloe” will make her debut and she’s, um, interesting. Complaints from fans even led to a string of confusing tweets from the game’s director about whether or not she’d be playable in the US but we’ll let you decide for yourself whether or not you like her. Take a look at the videos below.

With Goku’s arch-nemesis Frieza returning in the next film installment of Dragon Ball Z, here is a chance for you to add the Ginyu Force leader to your figurine collection.

Made as a collectable, the Frieza figure includes a multitude of interchangeable parts, including hand, feet and head. Comes with a display stand and other accessories, the Frieza S.H.Figuarts Action Figure from Bandai Tamashii Nations is available for purchase via Amazon.com

As the designation suggested, significant portions of this Mobile Suit Gundam action figure are made of die-cast metal, making it heftier in both weight and substance. Part of the coveted Gundam Fix Figuration Series by Bandai, which allows limited articulation unlike the more traditional models, the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam can actually transform as well, switching from the “Normal” to what you see here, the“”Awakened Destroy Mode”.
